> how to setup a reverse proxy for the services in your k8s cluster

Going off this specifically. I don't know how to do this. I actually have a k8s cluster on a home server waiting for me to do exactly this. Ideally there would be a doc that would start with ingress selection, and then guide a user through how to get it set up with common use-cases. Or something like that. Like others in this conversation, I've been leveraging LLMs with varying degrees of success to try and navigate this.
https://github.com/jonas/tig is one of the first things I install on a new dev machine. It's a really nice UI for staging files or hunks. Since it's just a companion to the git CLI, it feels much more focused than full-blown git GUIs, and doesn't do anything magical.
I don't find it compelling because I don't buy the premise, that a person whose brain has been separated from his body is anywhere at all. A simulation of life isn't life, and that's all this is. You have, on the one hand, a corpse relieved of its brain being used as a puppet, and on the other, a brain kept firing in a vat.

It's popular to think of "ourselves" as a sort of "ghost in a machine," and we particularly assume the ghost resides in the brain, but I don't think that's what people are at all. I don't think either our brains or the rest of our bodies are separable from our selves.

That's not to say you can't validly discuss how to treat the body and/or the brain, but I think the person here, the I, has died.
> Counterpoint: tech websites have literally warned users that they need to be wary of installing apps from inside Google's walled garden.

This is not a counterpoint to what I was saying. I'm talking about sideloaded apps, not apps from Google Play. I agree that Google should work to improve their app vetting process, but that's a separate issue entirely, and one I'm not personally interested in.

Specifically with truffle oil - its taste profile is so noticeable different, that unless you never had a real truffle, it would be easy to spot.

As for different things, about 7 years ago in LA there was as huge wine counterfeit operation bust. Expensive bottles were filled with cheaper wine, re-corked and sold. This is why expensive bottles now "destroyed" one way or another.

Point is - easier to sell and fewer troubles.
Why would Israel have to do anything? With the flagging system, even if there's just a minority of pro-Israel users anything anti-Israel is now effectively banned.

> In your example above (needing it every 3 months) it would take over 5 years to reach that point.

That wasn't my example. It was 3 months between the first and second times.

In my experience, your need for a tool often increases gradually. You have a one-off project that needs a tool briefly, then a couple of projects a few months later you need to try it more, then it becomes a regular thing.

It's pretty rare that I go from never needing a tool to needing it constantly as an instant switch. Which is the only scenario where 7/14/30-day trials make sense.
> Inflation tracks a basket of goods of what people currently buy

Exactly. If there was no except, you could just peg inflation to an apple and be done with it. You need the basket exactly to filter out the noise that occurs when the goods in the basket see an independent change in value. Food is unquestionably less valuable today as compared to most of the past, irrespective of the change in value of the currency.

> Not really, since different goods do not always correlate in price

Exactly. That is because everything has its own independent value, including currency, which change over time independently. Let's say you can buy an apple for $1 today. But tomorrow a damaging storm decimated the apple crop. Now it takes $2 to buy an apple. Did the price rise because apples are now more valuable, or because the dollar is less valuable?

Who knows? It is impossible to know. But if you look at the change across many items...

> Inflation is defined as the general rise in prices

Exactly. The general rise in price is the value of the currency declining. It is statistically improbable for all the items in a basket of goods to gain in value at a similar rate all at the same time. As such, you can conclude with near certainty that the rise in price is a result of the decline in value of currency.

As it pertains to the above, if a general rise in price over a given period is 25¢, while apples are up $1 over the same period, then you can reasonably surmise that the storm caused apples to become 75¢ more valuable than the previous state with the other 25¢ being a decline in the value of the currency.

There is no perfect way to measure the change in value of currency, but that's a really good way to do it. Which is why we do it.
Why not? It is highly litigated and still abundantly unclear whether certain cryptocurrencies are securities or commodities. That's the whole point of these legal battles. If it was clear, they would not be ongoing.
Should the game be inherently fair? Part of the fun is rewarding exploration over time as a life-long pokemon trainer trying to catch them all. You gotta go to all the regions to accomplish that. Maybe it'll take a long time!
$200/oz is the cost of a fresh high end truffle which you wouldn't use to make oil. You don't need that much to make infused oil, it's more like $10/oz.

Real 100 year old Balsamic vinegar is $200/oz though: https://giusti.com/products/giusti-100-reserve
It does not. There are RISC-V chips out there (T-Head 906) that have a pre-1.0 vector extension, but these are 64-bit application processors. I'm sure we'll see ESP32 RISC-V chips with SIMD in the next few years.
Writing a heartbeat process using UDP for a Fluentd logger is as one of the first things I learned in Elixir! In my case, basically when then there was no heartbeat, the TCP forwarder /w a connection pool would be taken offline. When the heartbeat came back, the forwarder was free to send messages again.

The heartbeat process itself basically just sent pings every second on a UDP port and waited for a reply. If we didn’t get a reply in one second, it’d assume the connection was bad until a ping came again.
You need to implement a deadman switch. For example if using Prometheus you can configure it to access an HTTP endpoint of a deadman switch service every X seconds. When that service detects you have not accessed it in some time it will alert you.

For example: https://blog.ediri.io/how-to-set-up-a-dead-mans-switch-in-pr...
I know people who meet up on discord groups and mail their phones to each other to catch rares and the like.
Maybe the way to view it would be as a gambling product, with the regulation that casinos encounter.

Though I'm guessing most crypto users wouldn't enjoy that.
Is it "unfair" or is this just the nature of a geofenced game? I think it's part of the fun.

Is it unfair that if you live in Arizona you're not getting to enjoy polar bears in the wild or even in the zoo?

And before globalism part of the romance of travel was things being exotic/rare and therefore harder to obtain.

If the game had other means to trade or obtain Pokémon outside of wild catches then it still offers players a chance.
No, actually, you should have kept reading. The fakes they're talking about are actual fakes - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/mar/09/grapes-of-wrat...
I will say that both analysis seem really repugnant. Specially the first one that first acknowledges the obvious limitation that "only a third of Gaza’s hospitals are even partially functional", to then push the idea that the MOH trying to work under that limitation is an attempt of manipulation. It's absurd to think that releasing less numbers would paint a more accurate picture; but I guess some side would appreciate if people stop counting the dead.
IIUC, the user evaluated it sufficiently for that task, such that they wanted to use it repeatedly for that task, but the software can do a lot more things, and they don't want to pay the price for just that one feature they evaluated so far, before they evaluate the other features?

If we're selling consumer software, and our expectation is that people might use it only rarely, and only need a fraction of the features, but get value out of it when they do... can we do free trials without this perception?

Don't do free trials? Cripple the trial so that user can see what it can do, but user can't get the benefit they want? Break a big package/suite into many small tools sold separately, to avoid the perception of paying for more than you need or can evaluate? Pay per metered use? Renewable subscription tiers?

Show HN: I made a tool to simplify lead generation (and made emails unlimited)
Hey HN,

I'm Vlad, a solopreneur who's been hustling hard to launch financial tools and services. Recently, I realized how much I was spending just to find good B2B leads in finance—it was draining both my wallet and my time.

So, I built Prefile.ai. Here's why I did it:

1. To cut down on the endless search and costs associated with acquiring high-quality emails.
2. To ensure that I (and now you) can directly reach the decision-makers without sifting through irrelevant contacts.

Prefile.ai offers unlimited access to an extensive lead database by leveraging six data providers (I don’t host emails; I just compare and validate them), precise targeting options, and quick export features to CSV. It's made a huge difference for me, and I think it will for you too.

I'd really appreciate your thoughts or a chat if you're interested.

Cheers,
Vlad

Yeah, exactly. Their whole thing is to get ~30 days ahead, too. I think 60–90 days would be a better hook and almost guarantee an "ah ha" moment. Everyone I've spoken to that's had YANB "click" was in that time frame, myself included.

The Guardian published a piece on the automated ISR systems Israel uses, with cited ratios. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/03/israel-gaza-ai...

15:1 for low-ranking Hamas militants

Elsewhere reported to be 100:1 for high-ranking Hamas targets

>> Several of the sources described how, for certain categories of targets, the IDF applied pre-authorised allowances for the estimated number of civilians who could be killed before a strike was authorised.

>> Two sources said that during the early weeks of the war they were permitted to kill 15 or 20 civilians during airstrikes on low-ranking militants. Attacks on such targets were typically carried out using unguided munitions known as “dumb bombs”, the sources said, destroying entire homes and killing all their occupants.

It's a horrible idea. In a crises the last thing you need to be doing is searching through pages of soft buttons looking for that critical control vs. reaching out to a physical control that's always in the same spot no matter what.

If you have the ability to withdraw to your own custody, I'd recommend it if you're reasonably technically literate (which I'm assuming because you're here).

If you don't have the ability to withdraw it, you have crypto IOU's, which is a layer riskier than actually having the assets already.
Wow, the author's gone above and beyond. Pages and pages of useful information, and this statement is just in the middle of a sentence:

>The thing is that nobody else is really trying to make anything like an M3 Pro

Well, AMD is indeed making their own M3 Pro, the Strix Halo. Which is going to achieve 4050/4060 performance in laptops that will again be cheaper and more power efficient for a lack of a Nvidia GPU. This is also a net addition to their lineup.

AMD is a minority player in the laptop market, so it doesn't necessarily make sense for them to compete hard against Intel at every price segment, and they have clear competitive advantage and counter-positioning here against Intel/Nvidia/Apple.
I agree that pedestrians shouldn't shoulder risk, within reason.

But by my interpretation of the article the author derides city planners for perceived incompetence/prioritization of motorist safety, without considering any nuance.
The abstract occupations of most people for all the thousands years of advanced society (marked by the ability to accumulate and hoard food or other kinds of wealth) have been marked by subjugation in service to some elite classes. Naturally some people are a bit concerned about their future and are not content to just stumble/bumble into the future and see what kinds of “ways of living” the powers that be have in store for them.
I've started working on them. I struggle to see how I will find the time...
I was curious about this angle too.

I would have thought that OpenAI had already trained off of SO data. Does anybody know if this is the case?

If they did, then they broke (or, I guess charitably, dodged the question of) copyright law in their training, got first mover advantage with the results, and now they can go back to the copyright holders to "partner" with them after the fact to prevent others from doing the same thing?
I think my point was more that 1 million dollars of debt is a pretty large sum to most people, but not much to someone who has substantial assets. You can draw up "that's only true" scenarios on basically any situation, so its not very helpful to go back and forth.

I will say the point about having debt limits your future possibilities is very true, and if someone would like to maintain an open future, stay away from large amounts of debt(homes, expensive cars, boats, etc...)
Clearly exploitation of the desparate.
I'm certain this topic has been addressed many times, but I can't see how to reconcile basic morality with "it's just a calculation". Tell me I should not inflict pain on sentient beings while subscribing to the belief that pain is simply one particular result of a massive mathematical calculation. It's literally just a number/matrix.
I prefer the set of trade-offs in shopping at Costco vs. a lot of other places. I also prefer the trade-off of getting stuff quickly without leaving home when buying from Amazon. I can see why some people would prefer other trade-offs, that doesn't make Costco worst or better, just a set of trade-offs I can live with.

> Why is it that all too often economics discussions get further and further away from some objective measurement of reality

Like physics, or biology, or math, economics is not getting further from the object of study - terminology needs defined precisely to prevent people from making wrong conclusions from misunderstanding or bad reasoning. Learning not only terminology, but the problems the terminology was created to avoid, takes time and study. But due to the complexity in each field this is needed. One cannot get proper conclusions using sloppy hand waving or touchy-feely ideas with little solid foundation.

In fact the only techy people I know that enjoy MacOS seem to be ignorant about what they're missing. I've had multiple people be very surprised when I showed them the clipboard manager built into Windows and explained how insanely slow switching between windows over and over to copy and paste multiple things on MacOS feels without it. They genuinely had no idea because they, again, never leave their Apple bubble.

Like the iPhone the one thing Macbooks objectively have going for them is (overpriced) good hardware.

You are absolutely right. What I meant is the implication that it can have beyond having copies, like doing legal paperwork to 3 or 4 government services because we need to update our email and credentials (I live in a country that is not tech friendly regarding to any administrative matter and it's a real nightmare sometimes).

And speaking of that, I tried once to create my own email server...so maybe I have to retry that and make a contingency plan, investing in a local server lab and preparing for the worst scenario.
Before we talk of Israelis taking "Palestinian" land remember that Jewish population numbers have literally been wiped from every Arab country. They just want a land where Arabs won't obliterate them, and yes, Gazans came from Arab countries.

Infact Arabs have gone to war with Israel many times, so when you see the 10,000 foot view, its very different to just to 1000 foot view focusing on "Palestine"
